Another wonderful video! I have bookmarked so many of your videos to use as both reference and (perhaps more importantly) inspiration. I downloaded the RAW files to play with, using your other videos on Lightroom post-processing. While I love and appreciate all the amazing free content you provide, I am also grateful for your tutorial and Master Class packages available available for purchase on your website. It gives me the opportunity to learn more while also giving me the opportunity to support what you do! You are the best out there, and it's clear how much you love nature, and you love what you do to represent nature's beauty to the rest of us. Blessings to you!
Another really great bs-free tutorial from you, and the final images are stunning both in the technical execution and composition. Really glad I found your work.
Thanks for this video as l am going to Queenstown for 5 days in July. I have just purchase a Tokina 11-16, 2.8 CF lens and was so pleased when you suggested this lens on crop sensor camera which l have- Nikon D7500. Your other hints have been taken on board and hopefully l will get some sensational photos.
this content is so valuable for new photographers like myself, thanks for sharing your craft with us. I hope to see the affirmations as well as the monetary potential of ad revenue abound for you in the near future. this is million+ subscriber level content
I just recently found you channel and boy am I glad I did. You instructional videos are superb! I spend a fair amount of time in the redwoods of Northern California and am always looking for ways to simplify the scene. Your tips are greatly appreciated.
thank you again for great little talks. It seems to me that somebody needs to do a lesson on the most important piece of photography equipment. the woolly hat and ice proof clothing! nobody ever does a video on shooting in nice weather! It all seems to be damp and coldness photos. bleak beauty seems an oxymoron, but most photographers on You tube shoot nothing else!
Just watched the video you did with Nick and came over. So glad i did. This video was perfect timing. I'm heading up into Pennsylvania to an old growth forest for a photo session. I haven't really done a whole lot in forests but after watching this i have a little better idea of what i want to do.
I watched this then went to photograph a waterfall and got in amongst the ferns… just about to have a look at the photos, might have to send you one so you can get a laugh 🫣🤣 had fun though!
love all your videos Will .always clear and to the point ,very interesting topics and awesome locations always look fwd to the next one cheers ,Andy Clee uk.
Awesome Will, Wide angle forest scenes is something I've always wanted to try shoot and watching this makes me want to do it even more with a few tips in mind🌳🌳
Thanks a lot Rowan. I’d say the wide angle compositions are potentially the most difficult, but also the most enjoyable to me. All the best and hopefully you can get out there and try it soon! Thanks for the support 💚🌳
Thanks, Will, very informative. By the way, brilliant light falling on ferns, mossy logs, trunks etc behind you as you videoed. Obviously chosen as your backdrop, but brilliant to photograph as well. Cheers
love your talks but i guess living in UK, the last thing i want to see is more clouds, and more cold weather - we get that 11 months of the year! some sunny happy scenes please.
Great tips, thanks! Do you ever shoot forests in portrait aspect instead of landscape? I feel like to capture texture along tall trees that maybe shooting so frame is vertical might be good, but maybe there is a consideration there that I am missing. Thanks!
Thanks Yolanda. Yes, for sure! Especially if you had plenty of tall straight trees, like Aspens. I just didn’t really encounter anything on the day that was worth framing like that. Cheers :)
Somehow find that editing is absolutely critical when taking pics into the NZ bush. Comes really bad out of the camera and need editing the right way to restore the atmosphere and pop here and there
